Thanks!

And I've always loved sports mascot costumes, especially when I was really young. I thought it would be the funnest thing ever to get a cool one and be able to wear it.

Then I discovered fursuits, freaked out, and now here I am making my own! ^-^

Yeah, I just like puppets, animatronics, animation and fursuits If I can get some talent I really wanna make one.

Thank you! I'm looking into buying foam right now, I'm using the Balaclava method for the head. x)

I've always used mesh for support, but I do mostly all foam.

I also don't recommend buying foam, it can get pretty expensive. Places like JoAnn's and whatever can get rather costly. I get my foam from an Upholstery shop in Tsawassen, it's uber cheap and you can get it in couch cushion sized squares or thin sheets.

Tell me how the Balaclava works out, I've always heard they are best for comfort, but I have no idea. Have you been to the Fursuit community on Livejournal?

Unfortunately, I live in Canada and there is only one store anywhere near me that sells foam. I have to buy it there.

At school. x)

Sewing room?
I'm pretty sure this is you, I haven't met anyone else who's making a wolf fusuit.

Nope, I don't take sewing at school. o-o

And the only people who know about it are the people on deviantArt and my best friend. XD

I meant in the sewing room after school, and you mean Laura, right? Haha, I sorta know her.

I was the short kid tracing my pattern. Gosh, I hope I've got the right person. xD

Sorry, you've got the completely wrong person.

I don't know anyone named Laura, I've never in my life been to a sewing club, let alone any type of sewing lessons or classes.

My best friend's name is Kristen, not Laura.

Aw, sorry. I just got totally excited because I had just been talking to someone about making a wolf suit. xD I was so sure of myself.

Ah well. Sorry for putting up with my self-assurance. xD

I should really stop attacking people like this, eh? hehe...
